The Ottawa Senators recalled today right-winger Ryan Shannon from the Binghamton Senators of the American Hockey League.

Shannon has appeared in two games for the Senators this season and has recorded one assist. He is tied for the team lead (Ilya Zubov) among all Binghamton scorers with 35 points despite missing 11 games due to recall or injury. In addition to having scored 10 goals, his 25 assists led the B-Sens. He has also accumulated 16 penalty minutes while posting a +5 ranking, which places him third on the club.

The Senators acquired Shannon from the Vancouver Canucks in exchange for defenseman Lawrence Nycholat on Sept. 2

The native of Darien, Conn., split the 2007-08 campaign between Vancouver and its AHL affiliate, the Manitoba Moose. Shannon, who won the 2007 Stanley Cup with the Anaheim Ducks, recorded career NHL season highs in goals (5) and points (13) in 27 games with the Canucks. He joined Vancouver on June 23, 2007, following a trade with the Anaheim Ducks for Jason King and future considerations.

In 82 regular-season NHL games over three seasons, he has seven goals, 18 assists and 34 penalty minutes.

The B-Sens host the San Antonio Rampage tonight at 7:05 p.m. Good seats remain for this contest. Tickets can be purchased at www.ticketmaster.com, by calling ticket master at 722-7272, or at the Arena box office inside the Broome County Veterans Memorial Arena.
